Yes, I'm with you, Paris. Change is a constant and the shift to electric powered vehicles is inevitable. Me? I'll miss the vibe and the noise of my CB1100 but, in the end, the freedom of being on the bike is the most important bit of the experience and I'm sure I'll learn to love the all-electric experience.

My view is that governments in Europe and the US need to get together and mandate a battery standard so that, as we're getting low on juice, we can stop at a service station and swap the batteries over. Should almost be quicker than filling the tank. And cheaper.
